Although not one of our six core events, some 23 members of RSCM Scottish Voices (not that far off half our choir) were singing in St Mary's Episcopal Cathedral in Glasgow yesterday where the cathedral choir, our singers, and choirs from around the diocese of Glasgow & Galloway joined to celebrate RSCM Music Sunday, and accompanied by Brass and Organ we raised the roof with glorious music including Parry's I was Glad amongst other delights!

The 100 strong choir included singers from as far afield as Dumfries in the south, Edinburgh in the east, and Elgin (near Inverness) in the north, all under the inspiring leadership of the Director of Music of St Mary's Cathedral, who also happens to be our own Musical Director, Frikki Walker.

It's the summer now, and the next time we meet is for our annual residential rehearsal weekend in early August which doesn't feature any public service or performance, so the next time you can hear RSCM Scottish Voices sing will be on Saturday 14th September 2013 in St Andrew's Episcopal Cathedral in Inverness, when we shall be singing Choral Evensong at 4.30pm.

More details including the music list will be announced here in due course, and you can follow us on Twitter at @RSCMScotVoices where we publish details of our activities.

RSCM Scottish Voices

Since 2009 RSCM Scottish Voices has been a self-financing adult choir that aims to draw together some of the most accomplished and experienced church musicians in Scotland to sing services six times a year in a variety of abbeys, cathedrals and prominent churches around the country, in addition to taking part in a very sociable annual summer residential rehearsal weekend.

Joining the choir

We occasionally have vacancies for singers, so if you are aged 18 or over, are resident in Scotland, have experience in church choral singing, and would like to be considered for an audition or would just like more information, please contact administrator@rscmscottishvoices.org.uk for an application form, stating your voice part and giving a little detail of your choral experience.

Subscriptions

The Annual Subscription for RSCM Scottish Voices is £40 per year, plus a £10 fee payable on the day at each event. There may be some limited scope for subsidising those in full time education who could not otherwise afford to join - please contact the administrator for further details. The cost of the residential rehearsal weekend depends on the venue.
